Student reviews

Professors

Current Student

Definitely research the Honors College, it is a great program, and if accepted, it is free!

Current Student

apply for the honors program as it is a very good program

Current Student

Adjust to the changes of academic requirements-Many people find college work to be too difficult, however, sometimes this is not really the case. The problem is that during high school and middle school we were taught to learn things in specific ways. In college there's many ways to learn things.

Campus and vibes

Current Student

Take a tour and ask lots of questions. I did even is they sound silly ask them anyways. If you like the campus apply early and put your housing depoit down early. like before december or you will be staying in smith hall which has community bath rooms.

Current Student

Whitley hall does not, however it is a 12 story building. So when there is a fire drill I feel sorry for you. The university offers an honors program, I recommend applying so you get the best rooms.

Current Student

Prospective students, prepare yourself during your senior year of high school because your parents won't be here to help you. You will have to do everything on your own and be responsible for your own actions. I believe that any prospective student will be successful at TAMU-Commerce by staying on top of your work, being well aware of grade and be willing to have fun all at the same time!

Current Student

Apply for everything early. Stay optimistic. There is much more at Commerce than meets the eye. There are so many opportunities here and things to do! Most importantly: get involved.

Current Student

Get involved in something, like an organization or club. It will make your college experience amazing!

Current Student

Visit the campus on Main Event days which can be located on their website. Ask as many questions as you can while on tour of the campus. Take advantage of the break out sessions because this is where you learn the most about financial aid and the requirements for being accepted as a student.

Current Student

Also when the admission representatives come to visit your school as them about visiting the campus. Obtain their contact information because they will help you through the process. Best of luck to you! Go Lions!!
